Business value
Many retailers sell products that require serial control and need to manage serial numbers in inventory-related processes. The Inbound Inventory operation in the point of sale (POS) provides the ability to register or validate serial numbers during the receiving flow. This feature will add similar functionality to the Outbound Inventory operation to support serial number registration for shipment flow.
Feature details
This feature will allow users to enter serial numbers for serial-controlled items on the outbound transfer orders during the shipment process in the POS Outbound Inventory operation. Serial numbers will be validated against the shipping warehouse to ensure the store is shipping serial numbers that are known to the store's current on-hand inventory. Serial number tracking dimension-related settings in Commerce headquarters will be respected to determine whether serial number registration is supported and whether blank serial numbers are allowed.
